Hey guys, i have melted my fusable link for my fog lights on my 85 TA. i want to replace it with a circuit breaker but the manual does not specify its amps in the wiring diagram. does anyone have any idea?
Thanks

The rating's not very critical. You get the minimum rating by adding up the Wattages of all the lamps it supplies, divide it by 12 to get the Amps, and select the nearest larger rating available. The maximum rating is determined by the wire gage used in the circuit.
A common fuse size for hazard/turn, backup and stop lights is 20 A. That size is good for up to a total load of 240 Watts and seems to be safe with most wiring used in our cars.
